Hello everyone, I'm 21 years old and I would like to know if I start taking female hormones my hips will grow and get new shape. I'm talking about the bone, not the fat tissue around it.

Thanks for your attention.   :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Nope, sorry, just fat distribution.
"Choosing to be true to one's self — despite challenges that may come with the journey — is an integral part of realizing not just one's own potential, but of realizing the true nature of our collective human spirit. This spirit is what makes us who we are, and by following that spirit as it manifests outwardly, and inwardly, you are benefiting us all." -Andrew WK

Bones stop growing around age 24/25 usually. Starting HRT around age 20 has shown some cases where the hips widened very slightly. So it is possible though it is rare, birth genetics decide many things. But by far the biggest change is weight distribution from the torso to the hip region.

I very much doubt that any changes in hip bone widening will occur.
I am not a medical doctor, nor a scientist - opinions expressed by me on the subject of HRT are merely based on my own review of some of the scientific literature over the last decade or so, on anecdotal evidence from women in various discussion forums that I have come across, and my personal experience

On HRT since early 2004
Post-op since late 2005
